1993 toyota camry electric cooling fan on all the time even with the defrost off i changed the sensor in the radaitor it wasent that could it be the sensor on the neck on the block next to the sensor for the guage?

Hello, and welcome to FIxYa. Please allow me to assist you. I have observed this condition before. It sounds to me like you have a stuck Cooling Fan Relay. Open the relay box under the hood, locate and remove each relay until the fans stop. With a small tool, pry open the cover of the relay and see if the contacts aretuck together. If so, don't try to fix it, the problem will recoccur. Purchase a new relay. Please check the relay and get back to me.Hello, and welcome to FIxYa. Please allow me to assist you.

Disconnect the negative battery cable. If equipped with an air bag, wait at least 90 seconds before working on the vehicle.

CAUTIONSome
models covered by this guidemay be equipped with a Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS), which uses an air bag. Whenever working near
any of the SRS components, such as the impact sensors, the air bag
module, steering column and instrument panel, disable the SRS, as
described in .

Get a T belt from toyota. It has 3 white lines on
it and and arrow mark. 2 lines are solid and one is broken. Put the
arrow facing away from the engine. The cam gears have a dot punched
into them near a certain tooth. This is where the solid white lines
will line up with. The crank gear will have a dot also. It will line up
at 90 degrees from the top, towards the front of the car. This is where
the broken line will match up with. With the belt installed with all
lines on their proper dots and arrow away from the engine, you valve
timming is correct.Of course you need to remove and compress the tensioner also. I assume you know this already since you didn't ask.

loosen the mounting bolts on the alternator, remove the old belt, replace with the new belt, slightly tighten the top mounting bolt, pull the alternator up until the belt is tight or if there is an adjustment bolt, crank down until tight (shouldn't bow more than 1"), and tigten other hardware.

On some Camrys the radiator fan is run by hydraulic pressure from the power steering pump. I think the sensor you mention is the engine coolant temperature sensor, which is in the circuit which operates the fan when the engine becomes hot. If this fails the engine will overheat, yes. The fan does not cool the hydraulic fluid from the pump.

If your power steering fluid gets low the same thing can happen, but you would notice immediately as the steering would become intermittently harder.

Yes if it hydraulically operated it could be because the pump for the fan is bad. If I am not mistaken the fan is run off of the power steering pump correct. check and make sure the pump is working correctly. I have not seen a hydraulic motor on a car I know they put them on a lot of diesel trucks like humvees and some Chevy diesels but not on a car. Most are usually electrical. I know on humvees with a hydraulic fan they have a fan controller check this and make sure it is working right you can unplug the controller and the fan should stay ingaged and turn faster.

On the '92-95 V6 Camry, the radiator fan is hydraulically operated by the power steering fluid and power steering pump. If the fan isn't running as fast as it should be, check your power steering fluid level.
